Polar Bear Plunge 2009

Yesterday was the Polar Plunge for the Special Olympics, it was the coldest day. The wind was miserable! There were a lot more plungers than last year. You can read about it here http://journalstar.com/news/local/doc49a0adcfa4e34960678039.txt

I plunged with Maria (who got me started last year), her husband Seth, Emily, Jena, and Jon. It was so cold and slick! I actually slipped in the water trying to get out to the flag! Yesterday I would have told you that it was miserable, but at the same time I was making plans to not wear socks next year. Socks just sort of suction to your legs and are really hard to get off! It was fun! I don't know if the girls will agree, but I thought so! I will be doing it again next year!


Jumping into the water!



Coming out of the water, I was so WET!!!
